Balantidium
''Balantidium'' is a genus of ciliates. It contains the parasitic species ''Balantidium coli'', the only known cause of balantidiasis. History The first-described species of ''Balantidium'', ''B. entozoon'', was described in 1838 by Ehrenberg as a member of the genus ''Bursaria''. ''Balantidium coli'' observed in patients with dysentery was originally described as ''Paramecium coli'' by Malmstein in 1857. In 1858, Edouard Claparède and Johannes Lachmann created the genus ''Balantidium'' and reclassified ''B. entozoon'' as its type species. Stein in 1863 reclassified ''Paramecium coli'' into the genus ''Balantidium''. Transcriptomics Transcriptome data for ''Balantidium ctenopharyngodoni'', from single-cell transcriptome sequencing, were published in 2017 and were the first omics data within the subclass Trichostomatia. Taxonomy A separate genus – '' Neobalantidium'' – has been created for several of these species. ''Balantidium coli'' is one of the species that has been ...
